TCP was designed and tuned to work well on networks where losses are mainly congestion losses. The performance of TCP decreases dramatically when a TCP connection traverses a wire...
R-max is a very simple model-based reinforcement learning algorithm which can attain near-optimal average reward in polynomial time. In R-max, the agent always maintains a complet...
We consider an on-line decision-theoretic interpreter and incremental execution of Golog programs. This new interpreter is intended to overcome some limitations of the off-line in...
